Hello everyone!

 

as you might know i finally got the go ahead from the council so i thought it would be cool to start a little diary/blog showing you my progress or rather our progress ( thanks dad ) during the build of my new loft we completed the entry door last night Who knew file cabinet drawer runners were so darn usefull ! need to keep my eye out for another two lol!

 

anyway i post up pics and some info ect later on tonight as were hopefully going to get cracking and start nest boxes and possibly the start of the traps

Looking good already, wont be long and you'll have it looking like a palace. :scotland::egyptian::scotland::egyptian:

 

i allready thought it was a palace! lol our first pigie must like the same day that was all done he started cooing non stop for atleast 5 minutes so much so a few ferrals and 3 ringed birds sat on the roof!

 

yep you got it i have spotted another three ringed birds in the area again this is getting verry odd

Well thats my trapping system build minus bob wires ( thats a night shift shopping trip ;) oddly enough just 10 minutes after the last felt tack went down,the council turned up :huh: i was expecting them to throw some kind of hissy fit but they didnt they were verry pleased at the whole build they did not even bat an eye lid the fact one of the corners of the extended box touch upstairs fence ( slight balls up when we put shed up lol )

 

i think i have one or two pics on camera but i will get more today for you all one she has a lick of paint lol

 

our resident michael flatley seams to really enjopy it i suppose he will enjoy it more once we get some other birds

 

 

second coat of paint on this morning the open mesh fronts still have to get there perspex screens on with hinges so they can be opened and closed as need be that way its sealed from the elements/preditors and the good side is my birds will have access to that area any time they wish
